I think it's probably related to the cold start issues you were working out.

Is it running rich or blowing out raw fuel? Pull the vacuum line off the FPR and see if fuel trickles through it.

What all ignition components did you replace? Have you pulled the AMM to see if you can limp it home? Is it at home or somewhere else?
It's an 87 - does it have a fully replaced engine wiring harness? It probably does at this point.

I would hazard a guess that since it's running at all, it's more of an engine/mixture control issue than a not running at all issue. Have you pulled the plugs?
